    I think this is somebody who thinks there are only two kinds of sewing machines-the old 'black one', and the new 'white plastic one'. This clearly isn't a new one, so 'old, black with gold' is is the only description necessary.

    Another SOWING machine picture of the back. Well it listed in Roseburg, must be a lot of the stuff there he/she has been smoking. Perhaps there is more treasure in the chest to warrent the price????

    my best buy was in medford on a 1904 white, the add read old sowing maschine. when you see sowing machine there a good chance of getting a great buy , these people wanted 50 and got 20,

    sorry my friend bought it and did the dealing.

    come om Roseburg is moving out of the dark ages, there's a walmart there AND a costco, but it looks like home depot is about to belly up

    I love the " I know what it's worth people " I feel like writing and ask " I have one also, but don't know the value, how much are they worth ? I paid 25 $ for this one, but it's a pos and want to get rid of it "

    maybe they'll give 200 ??

    no joking in roseburg add and in a shop, they pictured a 66 dirty and rust , I called she want $225 in real money.. just the machine head... she had another singer ?? model ) 180 they were both 25 $ machines at best
